About
the Books

BLOOD
FLAME, Book #1 of the Flame Series:

Vampire
Officer Connor of the Crescent Border Patrol tries to suppress his
desire for the powerful witch, Iris Meldeere. Because the woman
possesses the ability to kill him with the tips of her fingers, how
can he possibly fall in love with her? When a double homicide throws
them together, he soon finds his deepest fantasies fulfilled as Iris
succumbs to his seductions. But as they battle together to stay
alive, and love begins to consume them both, will the witch be able
to forgive the dark secrets of his past …

Hunky
Nathan Vaughn, six-six, and one muscled vampire warrior, has had a
lot of trouble in his life and needs a good woman to help even things
out. Vaughn and Emma met once in the past, the night they rescued
three teenage girls from a kidnapping ring. But a vampire and a witch
can’t have a relationship in Five Bridges. So, they parted,
determined never to see each other again. Emma was desolate, then the
phone rang. Vaughn called and kept calling and she kept answering.
But the rescue they shared turned out to piss off one very bad wizard
who decided they both needed to die. Now they’re in it, fighting to
stay alive and working oh-so-hard NOT to fall in love. Will they
survive when so much is against them?

From
Chapter One – Caught in a dangerous situation, Vaughn tries to get
Emma to leave, but she has a job to do. Together, they’ve found
three dead teenage girls in the Graveyard of Five Bridges.

Over
the beers he and Emma had shared the night of the rescue, she’d
told him she was clean but that half the Elegance force wasn’t.
He’d confessed a similar statistic for his own vampire territory of
Crescent. That’s when things had shifted and he’d started seeing
her as a woman he admired as opposed to a witch who could kill him
with the energy she could release through the tips of her fingers.

Another
burst of laughter came on the heels of the arrival of yet another
Border Patrol vehicle. His survival instincts kicked in. “We should
leave, Em. Right now. I can fly us straight out of here. Someone else
can pick up your bike and my SUV later.”

He
held out his arm to her and gestured to his foot. He’d flown her
before, so she knew the drill. All she had to do was hop on and he’d
have them out of danger within seconds.

She
glanced at his boot but shook her head. “I can’t go. Not yet.”

“Why?
We both know this is a set-up, and isn’t it bad enough Loghry got
these girls? So, how about we get the hell out of here?”

“Vaughn,
you know what this is like for me. It’s the way my alter power
manifests. I have to tend to the girls. Their spirits are calling to
me.” She started down the side of the ditch.

“The
girls need me and it’s the least I can do after what they’ve been
through.”

Vaughn
didn’t try to argue with her and instead began his own descent. He
might not want her to stay, but like hell he was leaving her alone in
No Man’s Land.

Emma
Delacey, Tribunal Public Safety officer, understood Vaughn’s
concern. She felt it as well, that she was heading into a trap.

She’d
been the first to arrive at the triple homicide in the Graveyard, a
part of Five Bridges she’d only been to a handful of times.

Her
corrupt boss, Tribunal Chief Donaldson, had ordered her to head out
here or resign. She wasn’t a quitter, though the sweat on his
forehead had told her she was in trouble the minute he’d come into
her office. The three major cartels of Five Bridges owned one of
Donaldson’s testicles. The dark spellcasters of Elegance territory
held the other in a crushing grip. She wasn’t even sure she blamed
Donaldson anymore. If you were high up in the administration and
didn’t play ball, you got killed…

I
hope you found yourself caught up in this excerpt from Chapter One of
AMETHYST FLAME.

began her career with Kensington Publishing and for eighteen years
wrote Regency Romance as Valerie King. In 2005, Romantic Times
Magazine honored her with a career achievement award for her Regency
Romance work. To-date, she has published eighty-nine books.
Thirty-nine of those are paranormal romances. Most of her paranormal

her stories conjure up hunky PNR warriors, like vampires and

Happily Ever After. Her hope is that the reader will come away
engrossed in the lives of her tortured heroes and her worthy women as
they wage war, as they make love, and as they face the tough issues
of life and relationships!
